Rob and Amber? How do they even compare? Of course, I enjoyed R&A, especially on TAR.

Chewpito Member 01-04-2004 Wednesday, August 08, 2007 - 2:47 am well, I work in a battered womans shelter and they would not find him funny..or charming.. Dick is a scary man that thrives on his ugly words and threats... Chewpito, I come from an abusive background...in more ways than one and I tried posting about this both after Dick dumped tea on Jen and after the croquet mallet incident and didn't do a very good job of it...but Dick had me totally convinced that he was going to use that mallet on Jen! I had nightmares for days after watching that!

Taxi I use Rob and Amber as an example because they were so obvious together and it was so obvious they would do anything to manipulate the others and yet they all played along with it. I just hope this house will not allow the same thing and instead of grouping with them break off soon and get at least one of them out. No matter how tough a week a person would have just pull at least one of them out. BTW.. I was a HUGE fan of Rob and Amber. Loved watching them on Amazing Race.

Lainee, I come from the same background and like you...more ways then one. Dick really is unsetteling to me.. he has taken the fun out of this game... Im all for crazy antic's and game play, emotions in the game...but this has been ugly...

My first husband was abusive. I think Dick is all talk, and his brand of sick humor doesn't offend me much. It's not pretty. Just showing how people feel differently about things no matter what their background.

Oh, C1, I'm not behind him, just not against him. I just find others just as bad in their own way. Dick has shocked me more than once, but I dislike others more. Some of the things Dustin and Eric have said that they will say to Dani, and the names they will call her, just for going after Eric bacause of Nick, have bothered me more. I thought more of Dustin before that...Dick is just Dick. Shock-value over.

Taxi The name calling doesn't bother me one bit. It's the sexual stuff that blows me away.

Chewpito...Dick is very unsettling. If I go to watch any live feed clips and Dick starts going off on someone I close that feed clip down real quick. Don't want any more nightmares here. 0Bicbicz911...my first husband was mentally and emotionally abusive. But, go one further...I grew up in a home that was mentally, emotionally and physically abusive. There is all kinds of abuse and Dick has stated he likes getting into people's minds.

I guess I'm somewhat immune to it, C1. I'm around alot of young people, from all walks of life, and many of them talk like Dick. Not all, just some, and it means nothing, just big talk. I don't like it, but it doesn't get to me. Dick reminds me of them....big, big, talk..trying to intimidate.

This isn't to say that I don't cringe at Dick's rants, sexual especially. I'd be calling him out on it. I would have wanted to call out Howie, Boogie, Jase, Marvin, Kent and others. And in some of them, I still see a good side and that includes Howie, Marvin and yeah, Dick.

I understand Lainee. And I respect your right to feel the way you do. Things affect people differently, and I would never say that a person has no right to be indignant, hurt or frightened. Of course they do. I also believe that folks can find the same thing shocking or entertaining, and they shouldn't be lambasted for feeling that way either. That's what I love about TV Clubhouse, and it's what has kept me coming back for 8 seasons. There is room for everyone here.

Oh, sorry. After Amber talked to Dick and Daniele and said she'd talk to Dustin and that she wanted Dustin to vote Eric out so she could keep her word, and they talked about having a deal where Dick wouldn't put up Dustin or Amber if he got HOH and Dustin wouldn't put up Dick or Daniele. Amber went inside to the kitchen and Dustin came zooming out (wearing his cape, even) and she told Dustin who tried to tell her she shouldn't listen to Dick and Daniele and Amber said then she would vote Eric out and stood her ground (so far) and to my surprise Dustin agreed to go out and talk to D & D. That's the point where I asked the question. Since they have been talking and sort of agreeing but now Daniele and Dustin are hashing some things out with each other, heatedly but still hashing. Dustin is lecturing though.. sigh.

I'm just surprised that Eric has not said one thing all week.

Bicbicz911...same here! Well, I found Big Brother mid season 2002...channel surfing to see Lisa, Danielle and others holding paddles in the air and voting who they wanted to come back in the house. I found TVCH a couple weeks later. Course, I was on the WRONG side since I wanted Lisa to win so I posted very, very little! I think I posted maybe three times that first year! Now that I can find my way around a bit more, I post where I feel more comfy...or when there are very few people around in a busier thread, like here...LOL

Thanks. I hope they don't trust Dustin, though. He has his own agenda.

I guess the deal for me is I could sit down with Dick and explain what offended me. I would not bother with Eric or Dustin. Part of that may be age differences, too. But I absolutely don't dismiss your feeling/opinion on this issue with Dick.

I think that Dustin is going to screw Amber over and at the last minute he will vote out Kail.

OMG! Dusty said that he will vote out E so Amber can keep her word... he'll flip that script and keep E in... IMHO... keeping D/D thinking that they have the votes... Dusty and amber must vote, I don't trust Dusty at all!

Me too, Lainee. I found TVCH when I was looking for updates on BB1 people, especially Josh and Brit. It took me awhile to finally post comments though.

So is the Important Happenings thread correct? Has the vote flipped to 4-3 or even 5-2 Eric out?
